    Summary of Run 1 results

    Run 1 couplings combination

    ➢ Best ATLAS+CMS fit for the ratio of production modes and BR➢ Cancellation of inclusive production theoretical uncertainties➢ Reference channel: smallest systematics and overall uncertainty: H → ZZ➢

  • 4P. Conde Muíño Multi-Higgs workshop, 5-9 Sept 16

    Run 1: Spin, Parity and mass

    ➢ JP SM assignment tested versus alternative hypothesis combining angular observables from H→gg, H→WW, H→ZZ channels

    Summary and conclusions

    ➢ After the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, the ATLAS collaboration has focused on the study of its properties

    ➢ The Run 1 data at 7 and 8 TeV provided the first measurements, mainly in bosonic channels

    ➢ With around 13 fb-1 of 13 TeV pp collisions we have ➢ Re-discovered the Higgs boson in H → gg and H → ZZ → 4l final states➢ Searched for the Higgs decaying to b-quark pairs➢ Searched for associated production with top quark pairs➢ Search for new Higgs boson in a large variety of channels

    ➢ Reached sensitivity comparable/better than in Run 1➢ Given the current performance of the LHC, we expect improved and new

    results in the future ➢
